Monthly Express
Cost: $129/month
Ships To: United States.
MonthlyExpress, who kindly send me this gift box to review, is a monthly collection of high end luxury products with a boutique feel from all around the world. Each month’s shipment is a distinctly different experience of discovery and enjoyment, with just one commonality: all of them are curated and fit for the most luxurious of palates.
MonthlyExpress ships via USPS Priority Mail. You have no idea how quickly I grabbed this off the porch and ran in the house to see what was inside. I wasn’t expecting it and I was thrilled.
MonthlyExpress has beautiful packaging so if you are thinking of sending it as a gift, it would be perfect.
MonthlyExpress comes in a gift box wrapped in an organza bow. The gift box is very sturdy, as is the outer packaging and they pack the boxes full, so I never have a worry about anything breaking.
The first look didn’t reveal much, but I certainly wanted to see what was in that big Calvin Klein box!
The March 2014 MonthlyExpress theme is “Spring Into Action”and includes a versatile array of hand-selected items for both home and body. Here is what was included:
~Storm Fragrance Beads by Calvin Klein ($80): When I opened the box I discovered the beads and thought it was a necklace and was like, hmm, where would I wear this? After uncovering the fragrance I realized I was way off! These are fragrance beads. You can put them in a drawer for fresh smelling linens, on a door handle to bring scent into a room or anywhere else you like. I love the linen idea, so I am going to hang these inside my linen closet.
~Sense & Sensitivity Mineral Mist by Between You & The Moon ($34): This spray is designed to reduce irritation and redness while preventing flushed skin and uneven skin tone conditions. It sounds like a great summer skincare item and would work awesome for a hot day outdoors.
~Nourish & Replenish Oil by Between You & The Moon ($33): Not only does this firm your facial features, but it also relaxes your senses and promotes healthy circulation.
~Cucumber Under Eye Gel by Key West Aloe ($22): Ahh, I needed this. And I am so excited that it’s not super expensive because I already know I want more. It reduces puffiness and cools at the same time. I love it.
~Travel Bottle by Porcelain Company ($12.95): OMG I have never heard of such a thing! You spray this in the toilet water when you have to, you know, on the road and it will keep the washroom smelling fresh. The card suggestions leaving this in your guest bath or taking it with you when you travel. What a genius idea.
All totaled I came up with a value of $181.95 for the March 2014 MonthlyExpress collection. Collections are $129/month, and, as you can see, the curation on these is amazing. Just like the other two MonthlyExpress collections I have received I thought this was fabulous and I felt super spoiled. I have never heard of the majority of these products and I love discovering new brands and items!
